Cant remove top on vax power pet 2 to get access to belt

I havea Bissell ProHeat Model 7901. My problem is that the brush doesn't rotate. I have removed the access cover and both belts and found that the central cylinder for both belts is frozen and will not turn easily. Both belts are fine, except they are now burnt from this cylinder not being able to rotate. What I need is how do I remove the top cover to get at this cylinder to remove it and free it up?

I have a Dyson DC-17 and the top of the cyclone has hair and other debris jammed in the ports. It has 6 six screws holding the parts together and I can only get access to 4 of the screws. The bottom piece appears to be removable, but I can't figure out how to remove it without damaging it. If I can get this piece off, then I have access to the other 2 screws. Can you tell me how to remove the bottom piece? Thanks in advance.

The instructions on how to dis-assemble your DC-17 are somewhat lengthy and it is quite helpful to have pictures and videos handy while you are doing it. Normally I would give the instructions here, but due to the amount of info that is necessary to ...

Samsung Quiet Storm Canister Vacuum VAC-9049
The motor will not run. Power is on to the motorized rug tool.
How can I remove the upper housing to get access to the motor? I have removed the six visible screws, but the housing is restrained at the rear. I suspect there are additional screws under the power switch and cord retractor assembly, but I cannot remove that either.

I need to remove the top cover from a Wertheim w4030, I have removed all screws that I can get at. I have notice a further 3 in places that is not possible to access. It looks as though the two buttons on the top if removed will provide the solution but I don't want to break anything by forcing something that is not supposed to be done. Can you help?

Hoover F6025900 Steam Vac Widepath LS, I own this steam vac and I found bits of rubber under the machine when I turned it on, smelled like burned rubber from a belt? Can you please tell me if there is a belt on this carpet cleaner and if so, how to access the belt? I have taken out some screws and still cant get to the belt?
Thanks

Well there is no belt, and not sure what the rubber would be from, everything is plastic or metal. Unless it is really an electrical smell, which means the motor is going bad.\015\012\015\012 ...

If the power brush does not roll, I presume it would be a belt. Where can I get a replacement for this model? Do you know of any diagram for the unit or how to remove the belt?
Many thanks,

I can't find the 4 screws to get to the belt on a dirt devil 22.0 Fx. The bottom of the vaccuum says " remove four screws from bottom of nozzle then lift top nozzle cover off", where are these screws, I can only find two, and which is the top nozzle cover?

I have a windsor vsp 14, it is making a bad grinding noise, when I take the top blue piece off it stops, the brush works fine and when I put the top back on it grinds really loud and gets hot. it still vacuums and the belt and brush are working fine, can't figure it out. and when the lid is on I cant see what its grinding on. It only makes a grinding noise when you pull handle back and engade to vacuum flor and stops when you put it upright.

I have vax 1800 pet vacuum. It is picking up fine but very noisy. I have replaced the belt in the past and the noise started then. On looking at it closely today I noticed brushbar was getting worn where it slots in at the side so I suspect it wasn't fitted in properly after replacing the belt. Now in properly but still making terrible noise. There is a bit of a rubbing noise when brushbar moved round. Do you think the brushbar needs replaced? How do I lubricate the bearings to try that bef
